This is an awesome flick! I highly recommend it! Props to Tom Ryan and all who were involved! The camera work was great, the creepy music was awesome, and the performances were top of the line. I especially liked seeing Joe Parascand who I'm familiar with from his work from Ryan Scott Weber's films.

I was skeptical when I first heard about this film. The original Ghostbusters is one of my favorite films and I even had the pleasure of working with Ernie Hudson on a film a few years ago. Still, the videos I saw of this film prior to it's release made me curious enough to go see it. I particularly liked that Kate McKinnon's character (Holtzman) slightly resembled the cartoon-version of Egon Spangler.

The laughs are there though the comedy might not be everyone's cup of tea. I thought all four of the leading ladies were wonderfully cast and did great at being four separate personalities that make one great team. I was never a Melissa McCarthy fan but I thought her performance was just wonderful and fun to watch.

I also enjoyed every single nod they made to the original film. I liked that the film was about four weird/geeky women who were absolutely not sexualized characters. That's a breath of fresh air! If people want to throw the term "sexist" around than this film isn't anymore sexist towards men then the original was towards women.

I feel like I gained another Ghostbusters movie! I don't feel like people should take it seriously. You weren't supposed to take the original seriously either! It's a movie that you can sit down, eat some popcorn to, and just have fun watching!

I see a lot of low-budget independent horror movies and the bulk of them are usually zombie films. I hate how everyone is doing a zombie film but let me tell you, I liked "The Crossing" a lot. The idea was simple yet unpredictable. For me it was unpredictable. I thought I knew what was going on and then there's that moment of clarity at the end where I was taken by surprise. I also really respect the attention to detail on the production end of this film. This film is beautiful shot and colored. The sound is top quality also. The music was very well placed. I would highly recommend this film to horror lovers and fans of the zombie sub-genre.
